Tiger Woods says he will miss US Open next week
Tiger Woods announced on Tuesday that he will not play next week's US Open at Brookline to continue his recovery from severe leg injuries sustained in a car accident last year.
The 15-time major champion withdrew from the PGA Championship last month after the third round.
"My body needs more time to get stronger for major championship golf," Woods tweeted, adding that he is still planning to play in the British Open at St Andrews, which starts on July 14.
